If you are in an extreme or exceptional situation or you are in a crisis you can apply for help from Discretionary Support. Depending on your personal circumstances, you could be offered either an interest-free loan or a grant that you would not have to pay back.
Discretionary Housing Payments (DHP) are for people who need extra help with their rent when Housing Benefit, Local Housing Allowance, or Universal Credit doesnt cover the full amount. If you are suffering severe financial hardship or your tenancy is at risk, you may be able to get a DHP to help.
Contact your states 211 program to find emergency help paying your rent. Each state has its own eligibility rules. Call 211 or search for state and local emergency rental assistance programs.
A Discretionary Housing Payment is also available for one-off costs like a rent deposit, rent in advance or removal costs to help you move into a new home.
